Tyre Pressure Monitoring System recoding and replacement Recode tyre pressure monitoring sensors (TPMS) alerts you if there is a problem with your tyre pressure or failure via a dashboard indicator. After the tyre has been checked or replaced the sensor will need recoding or replacing to show the fault has been fixed. Ultimately the best check is by Four Wheel Alignment A simple knock on a kerb or hard knock in one of the many pot holes can easily put your steering geometry out of line. When the camber, caster and toe angles of each wheel are correctly aligned, your car drives straight. If any of these items are misaligned your vehicle can pull to the left or right or your tyre can wear unevenly. Having your wheels, tyres and steering correctly set up prevents wear on the components, allows for smoother and more efficient running of your vehicle Four wheel alignment ensures your vehicle's wheels are pointing in the same direction in accordance with the manufacturer's data. Four Wheel Alignment allows toe adjustments of individual wheels which ensure the steering wheel is set straight. If required adjustments of camber, caster and other angles will ensure optimum performance and savings. TJ Motors use a Supertracker fully computerised four wheel aligner. The Supertracker downloads the manufacturer’s data from its database and provides the customer with a before and after print out summarising the changes that have been made. |
